At this point in the dotage of Pappy's blog, I'm a little embarrassed to mention how often I think of blogging (never) and expound on all my great ideas for posts (none). But one thing I've always wanted to know is what Pappy does while we are at work. Of course our bedroom, where Pappy hangs out, is way too puny for such extravagances as a webcam on an ongoing basis-- a Pappycam if you will. But for a couple of days...

So, as a coup de grace for the blog, last week I set up the webcam to do time lapse photography of Pappy while we were out at the office. I made some fascinating discoveries, like that Pappy routinely spends part of the morning flopped down on the floor by my side of the bed before moving onto his dog bed. Faithful ol' terrier. Here is a movie of his exciting exploits-- the secret life of dogs.

To all our readers, I leave you with this window on Pappy as a memento. Party on.

Pappy spends his days exactly as I do.. a nap here, a nap there.. oh okay.. napping all day!

Ive been mostly a silent reader and rare commentator, right back from the days when I was plucking up the courage to have my own blog and just snooped on others.. then whilst taking my blogging baby steps when i was just too in awe of the blogging greats to dare comment, to finally plucking up the courage to jump in and comment.No matter which stage I have been at when reading your blog I have always enjoyed it, and randomly finding your DWB Christmas video was a little while ago had the whole household enthralled!

Its great to see you, if only momentarily and once in a while.. so for today I won't gaze in awe, i'll just jump right in and comment...

Does this mean goodbye, Pappy???? We will miss you and hope perhaps to see you every once and awhile-oh wait-that's what we have been doing ;) Seriously, please check in now and then, won't you?Sunny,cooter&Jamie(who have always read Pappy)

I just wanted to write to tell you about the Morris Animal Foundation's Cure Canine Cancer Campaign. Canine Cancer kills 1 in 4 dogs. The Morris Animal Foundation has a large research project that is ongoing to cure the disease.

We would appreciate any coverage you might give to us - www.curecaninecancer.org

Hey, Pappy! Its my first visit to your block but I was fairly shocked to see you being on camera all day, was this with your permission? If not, let me recommend my law firm, Cheatem,Cheatem and Howe and perhaps get a bit of a suit going re privacy. Just saying' . .
